His work consists of acrylic on canvas & mixed media sculptures which are described as magnificent flowing movements of textured abstract shapes in an exiting array of colours which reflect the wonderful emotions of our contemporary world.
 


Joanne Makamaka-Turuwhenua

Recovering from painful life experiences and in effort to restore and rebuild, I started an amazing expressive journey. This creative journey of discovery and healing is reflective throughout my art. Nature also is a place I see the hand of the greatest artist of all, it too is where I draw a lot of inspiration and peace. I hope that my work brings you as much love, strength, courage and joy as it has me.
 


Carolyn John

I enjoy working mostly with mixed media, I love to create a feeling of energy in my paintings, my best work happens when I tap into my emotions and the end result is usually a solution to a problem which I have been subconsciously puzzling over, for a while.
 


Rachael Humphreys

I work best when I am not 100% focused on my art but distracted slightly, it tends to free my hand from conformity. I also like to scribe into my work conversations taking place around me. This gives my art a unique individuality and freedom.
 


David Gibbon

Working primarily in sculpture David is inspired by a life long love of coastal areas, especially natural rock formations that have been shaped by the movement of tidal waters. His works on large industrial panels finished in various stages of rusted iron are close reproductions of coastal rock formations he has visited. Also a feature of David’s work is his use of surfboard blanks as a base for more explorative pieces which focus more widely on the elements themselves. His work is as much an exploration into his own emotional attachment as it is an exploration into the effects of nature on what is perceived to be rock solid.
 


Donna Melenewycz

Welcome to my imagination. It is inspired by the Spiritual and nature realms and is drawn from my passion
for long wanders through our rainforests and national parks. My love of expressive art started with folk art and crafts and flowed into works of mosaic and contemporary sculpture. Now painting has become my passion and my way to express my creative energy. To me art is like a language of colour and joy and I find it to be a fulfilling and gratifying opening to my imagination. I hope my creations inspire you to see a wonderful glimpse into what may be hidden in heavenly realms.
